An Iowan since 1972, Suzanne B. Aunan is a self-taught artist who has enjoyed painting as far back as she can remember. She was born in New York City and grew up on a dairy farm in upstate New York. Suzanne attended the University of Iowa, majoring in Medical Technology, and later graduated from the Physician Assistant Program. She worked as a P.A. at University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics, then as a full-time mother of four. Now with all four children in school, she is enjoying a career as an artist.

Suzanne paints detailed compositions using acrylic, gouache, and watercolors, sometimes adding pencil or ink pen. Her work has been purchased by collectors world-wide.
